Can you imagine baked acorn squash in 8-9 minutes..??? It is possible with the NORDIC.Wave MICRO TENDER COOKER ! Made by Nordic Ware. I wouldn't be with out it..soups, meat, chicken, stews, veggies, desserts...etc. If intereste they have them on E-Bay..be sure to get the cookbook with it.. I posted two recipes on JAP. 1. BEEF STEW or SWEDISH COLLOPS 2. POTATOES O'BRIEN I LOVE MINE...Nancy...10/4/12
